Given the premise, it is important to know when you should be listening to your body and responding responsibly.
If you feel ill effects that COULD be symptoms of a heart attack you have choices: running to the ER to get checked out OR getting expert medical advice before you get to the hospital to find out you have a severe case of indigestion.
A device like AlwaysConnected Solutions‘ MultiAlert can be the perfect way to provide you access to expert medical advice at the push of a button. It is the only PERS device that provides two forms of care in one device. When you push the nurse helpline button, you’ll be connected with an RN who will assess your symptoms to determine the severity of your condition. On one hand, you could save the time an expense of an unnecessary visit to the ER. On the other hand, you could get the help you need without delay. Remember: quick response means better outcomes.
